2 K3 u! o. G/ M3 ?4 bBased on my knowledge, many of the above are true. Especially the following two,

; R8 F& {6 n$ c7 D' O) b% Q2) Fish has omega-3 fatty acids, and are known to be beneficial to us in various ways. The problem is that our body does not make omega-3 fatty acids, and we need to consume it from fish.
' A, m9 H4 g; q8 q, i+ U# ]
1 p  M, t) n6 |% M& o& hMany research had been done on omega-3 fatty acids. In Canada, biotechnology enabled scientists to incorporate omega-3 fatty acids in eggs. It is currently being sold at supermarkets here. As a result, consumers can obtain it from a non-fish source. More new products with omega-3 fatty acids are expected in the near future.

However, there's one thing that we should always keep in mind. : z+ e& k! s- I+ [

5 z* L0 U7 K% SA balance diet, and exercise regularly
: L5 v) {' R; X4 u! e9 P7 Y
- C4 z; O, ]7 vEven though some of the above are beneficial to your health, if you overdo it, they might actually harm you.
) O/ ?- B' w, |: d  _2 h$ R3 b5 l! ?1 Z6 r6 @+ o
For example, vitamin E is good to you. But overdoing it might lead to Vitamin E poisoning. & T  R* R" Y# d) r% N7 ^; T

Therefore, eat a balance diet (eat everything in moderate), and exercise regularly. These are the most important factors for good health.  |* q7 C$ I, B" u+ `
